Levin Clifton is actually buried in the Sand Rock Methodist Church cemetery, located in Sand Rock, Al.Sand Rock is only about 3 or 4 miles from Blue Pond, Al.Levin actually founded the Sand Rock Methodist Church.
I also have been researching the Clifton family.My gggf was born in Blue Pond in 1848.He was Elijah J. Clifton.I think he is connected to Levin's family also but have not been able to prove it.I can't find any connection to his parents.According to the 1860 census, there was an Elijk Clifton, Layette, and William Clifton in the family named Owens.I believe the Elijk is my Elijah, because the age matches.It's ironic also that he was a methodist preacher also.
If anyone has any information on Elijah J. Clifton, I would appreciate.(There was also an Elijah G. Clifton in the same area, but he is in the Aaron Clifton family).
